A late-evening dispute in a Landover parking lot on August 31, 2024, ended with the death of 34-year-old Jakel Stone of Bowie. Police responded to reports of a shooting at about 7:40 p.m. in the 6900 block of Hawthorne Street and found Stone with multiple gunshot wounds. He was taken to a nearby hospital and died a short time later.

Prince George’s County Police Homicide Unit said the shooting stemmed from a dispute between Stone and another individual and identified a suspect. On September 4, 2024, the Fugitive Unit, assisted by the Metropolitan Police Department and the U.S. Marshals Capital Area Regional Fugitive Task Force, located and arrested 23-year-old Lawrence Fox Jr. of Hyattsville in Washington, D.C. He was charged with first-degree murder, second-degree murder, and other related counts and was being held in Washington awaiting extradition to Prince George’s County. The motive for the dispute has not been released.
